Give Them 4 Chance!

That is to say, your lungs. Also
all your breathing machinery.
Very wonderful machinery it is.
Not only the larges air-passages,
but the thousands of little tubes
and cavities leading from them.
When these are clOgged and
chOked with matter which ought
not to be there, your lungs cannot
half do their work. And what
they do, they cannot do well.
Call it Cold, cough, pneumonia,
catarth, consumption or any of
the family of thrort and nose and
head and lung distractions, all
are bad. All ought to be got rid
of, There is iast one sure way to
get rid of them. That is to take
Boschee's German Syrup, which
any druggist will sell you at IS
cents a bottle. Even if every
thing else has failed you, You may
depend upon this for certain.
